Little Broken Hearted Sammy,
sitting on his daddy's knee,
Listenin' to the radio,
but his heart was achin' so,
it seemed
Angel took his mammy,
and he wonder why he sighed,
while his daddy fell asleep,
Sammy dandy creeped to the radio
And cried, Mr. Radio Man,
tell my momma to come back home,
won't you do what you can?
Cause I'm so lonely,
I've been listening in every day
since she went away.
But no words from a heaven been heard,
can't the angel hear me pray,
when the sandman is nigh.
And to slumberland I must go,
I know she hears me sigh,
over my radio,
and the reason I'm
Crying an d sighing,
I'm all alone.
Mr. Radio Man,
tell my mama to come back home.
Mr. Radio Man, tell my mama, my mama
to come back home.
Won't you do, won't
you do what you can?
Oh, I'm so lonely.
I've been listening in every day
since she went away.
But not a word from heaven
have I heard.
And the angels hear me pray
when the sandman is nigh.
And to Slumberland, I must go,
I know, she must hear me sigh
over my radio.
Oh, and the reason I'm,
I'm sighing, and I'm crying,
I'm all alone.
Mr. Radio Man, please, please,
tell my mama to farm a black hog.
